Each Mother Goose Time activity integrates at least two if not three domains (for example social + physical + math) to offer children rich multidisciplinary learning opportunities. These skills, when combined with a nurturing environment, intentional teaching practices, and meaningful relationships support a child's school readiness. Our program emphasizes: *Social and Emotional Development *Physical Development *Language and Literacy Development *Mathematics and Reasoning development *Social Studies Development *Science Development *Creative Development *Second Language Acquisition Development Full-time, part-time, before and after-school, weekend and evening schedules.

Hello, I am originally from Alberta, Canada, but have recently moved to the Salt Lake area. I am completely documented to work in U.S.A and I would like to become a part/full-time nanny starting as early as July, 2018. In Canada, I took 2 years of college for Child and Youth Care, then continued into the Early Childhood Education field for two years. I currently hold my Childcare Workers certification, and with that, I have worked as a Supervisor for a licensed daycare, and a Team Leader at a licensed before and after school program. I thoroughly enjoy working with children, and with these jobs, I have gain much useful experience such as: preparing a variety of healthy snacks and meals, working extensively with 18 children between the ages of 2-3 years, and 30+ children, ages 5-12 years. I have gained experience in planning and organizing both creative and physical developmentally appropriate activities. I hold a current driver's license and have my own car. I have never been in an accident and have never gotten a ticket. I have Canadian Childcare certification given by the government of Canada for the college education I received, as well as a current Canadian criminal record check. I also have proof of full first aid certification. I am a capable, dependable and educated childcare worker eager to get started as a nanny in the area!
